About Elisa

Elisa Helena Levy Fleury is a BACP counsellor with 40 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationships, self‑esteem and life transitions, and also supports those facing addiction, grief and trauma.

She offers individual counselling alongside life and career mentoring. Sessions draw on her long practice with Biographical Counselling and Transpersonal Art Therapy, and she may introduce meditation tools when they seem useful. Elisa speaks English, Portuguese and Italian and brings a multicultural outlook to conversations about belonging and identity.

In sessions she helps people notice patterns that keep repeating, for example difficulty saying no, leaning on others to the point of losing themselves, or living with someone else's moods or drinking. She uses talking and creative approaches so people can work through feelings and recognise practical steps forward.

Elisa describes her work as combining attachment-based thinking, client-centred listening and elements of psychodynamic and solution-focused approaches. She will often link present difficulties to life history and relationships, while also looking for small, concrete changes to try between meetings.

Her background includes many years in counselling and human resources, with focused practice since 2008. That experience informs practical discussions about careers, parenting and immigration-related strain. For booking, readers should confirm current session options before scheduling.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work looks at how earlier relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can explore those relationship dynamics and how they affect boundaries, closeness and trust. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and supporting a person to find their own solutions; in remote meetings this usually means reflective talking and practical planning together. Mindfulness-based ideas involve simple attention and breathing practices that can be taught and practised during sessions to help with anxiety and mood regulation.

Choosing an approach is usually a collaborative process. She will discuss what feels most relevant for the person's goals and preferences and try different ways of working to see what fits. The clinician and client check in together about progress and adjust the mix of talking, reflective work and practical tasks as needed.

Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what is offered for remote work. Online meetings can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow therapeutic tools such as expressive art prompts and meditation exercises to be shared in the session, supporting hands-on practice between meetings.
